Ingredients

Grain-free Breaded Shrimp

  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Flour
  • 1/4 cup Moon Cheese, Pepperjack
  • 1/4 tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt
  • 1/8 tsp Black Pepper

No-sugar Added Bang Bang Sauce

  • 1 tbsp Fresh Chives , optional for garnish

Instructions

  • Add baking powder, coconut flour, Moon Cheese, salt, and black pepper to a food processor
  • Blend until the Moon Cheese becomes more like a flour/meal – there will be a few larger bits and that’s ok. Transfer to a shallow bowl so that you can bread the shrimp
  • Dip each shrimp into the beaten egg then coat it with the breading mixture. Place the coated shrimp on a plate until all are coated
  • Heat your oil to 350 degrees in a frying pan
  • Fry the shrimp for approximately 1 minute per side then transfer to a paper towel-lined plate for draining
  • Add ingredients for the No Sugar Added Bang Bang Sauce to a bowl. Mix with a fork.
  • Place the breaded shrimp on a serving dish and top with the Bang Bang Sauce drizzle as well as the fresh chives.
